A rivet or pin vcontinuous mesh with gear wheel 17. Gear wheel 47 extends through bracket 45. leg 42 and the no center of the gear wheel 20 so as to act as an axle therefor.

A suitable knob or handle 48 is connected with gear wheel 20 so that this gear wheel may be rotated manually at any time. The gear wheel 20 is appreciably larger than the gear wheels 15 and 16 and consequently one rotation of gear wheel 20 will make the gear wheels 15 and 16 and heaters 21 rotate several times. It will be noted that the beaters 21 are mounted to rotate about a horizontal axis and that the longitudinal sections or the heaters 21 are substantially parallel with the bottom of the container 1 as illustrated particu larly in Figure 1. In this way a greater b a in action is secured than if the heaters were round-' ed, as the heaters coact with the container to secure the proper beating action.

I claim:

1. An egg beater including a container, a cover j one of said journal members, said means for journaling said beating elements comprising a pin extending through each of said pinions with the respective ends extending into said curled portions of said brackets, one end of each of said beating elements being connected to one of Said pinions, and power means extending through said cover from a point above the container, said power means beingformed to rotate said pinions when the beater is in use.

2. An egg beater including a container, a cover, a pair of beating elements positioned to operate around a horizontal axis when in use, a pp ing bracket for said beating elements, said bracket being rigidly connected at one end to said cover and at the other end positioned adjacent the bottom of the container, said bracket having a pair of curled portions presenting eye journal members, a pair of intermeshing pinions arranged adjacent said journal members, a pin extending through each of said pinions and into said journal members, one end of each of said beating elements being connected to one of said pinions, said pins extending through the opposite end of the respective beating elements, means for supporting said pins at the opposite end of said beating elements, and power means for rotating said pinions when the heater is in use.
